So Lilly-Belle has been fixed for about two weeks now. Initially she was just as affectionate, but for the last few days she's seems...off. She's been very skittish with Joe and myself, she hasn't really been hiding, as she lays where we can see her, but if you walk towards her while she's...

So, before we had Lilly-Belle, Chewie had really bad play aggression we think, in part, came from him being separated from mom too soon. After the introduction process, Chewie still played a little too rough with Lilly-Belle, but he no longer came after us. Two weeks ago, we took Lilly-Belle to...

So we've had to keep Lilly-Belle and Chewie separated, because she was fixed last Wednesday and she's not supposed to be playing or climbing or anything like that. So every time we let Chewie out, he goes straight for Lilly-Belle, and he just goes out her. Before she would just hold her own, but...

First, I wanted to say "thank you" to everyone that gave me tips for Lilly-Belle! She's actually gained a couple of pounds, so she's about 1.5 pounds less than Chewie right now. We also took her to be fixed today. The only thing that stinks about the whole thing, is that Chewie was sad and...

So Lilly-Belle is still very thin, but we've now noticed something new. She shivers sometime. I think she's cold, because it happens when she goes outside. I'm just not sure if we need to do more food for her or what. I'm also not sure what's causing all of this

So I've never personally owned a Maine Coon. My Grandparents did though, but I never saw him as a kitten, I only saw him as a full-grown adult. Anywho, Chewie is about 6 months old now, and he weighs about 8 lbs. We weighed him today. We give him only a little bit of dry kitten food (Authority...

So Chewie is on Revolution for cats, and we pay for it monthly via the Optimum Wellness Program, and we were talking about getting Lilly-Belle on it as well, but I don't know if we can afford to pay that much monthly, so I was just wondering if anyone knew about Flea/Worm Medicines having...

So, last week we took in our second cat, Lilly-Belle. Initially there was some hissing, so we kept them separated. She's not fixed, and we tried to take care of that last week, but sometimes people are difficult and so it didn't happen. We're taking her this week. Anyways, we're pretty sure she...

My boyfriend knows how much I love Maine Coons and Siamese cats, and when we were trying to locate the Siamese cat's owners, we checked Craigslist, and I found a Maine Coon/Siamese mix. She's a year old and is just stunning. Her owner had to find her a new home as soon as possible, and wanted to...

So, we've been having a problem with Chewie crawling on everything, so I decided to take all the extra cardboard we had lying around and made a "cat fort". It didn't come out as nice as I'd have hoped, but I'm still proud of my work. Picture below. Joseph and I have also had a couple of spats...

So a couple of weeks ago, we successfully switched Chewie from Whiskas wet food to Blue Buffalo Wilderness kitten food. He's been eating that no problem, and we also have been giving him some plain cooked chicken at night, for dinner. The last couple of days, he hasn't been eating his food as...

Today we took Chewie on his first vet visit. As soon as the door to the room closed the vet had a thermometer in him and was telling us he had tapeworms. It caught us both by surprise. Once she pulled the thermometer out, she showed us this little white thing and said he  should go on medicine...

Have you guys seen the nail caps that have been popping up everywhere? I've seen them and I'm not sure how I feel about them. It seems odd to me, personally, but my boyfriend has never had a cat, so when the cat scratches him a little, he kinda freaks out. I know he's been thinking about them...

So in our apartment complex, my boyfriend and I have discovered either an abused stray or a feral cat. She's out an about often in the neighborhood, so yesterday, I sent him down to give her some wet food. He was able to pet her, but when he came back up, he informed me she had what looks like a...

So, while at Petsmart I have seen the sent diffusers and we've even purchased Chewie the collar to help him relax a bit. I just have one question about the scent diffuser, what's the difference between that one at petsmart and like an AirWick or Glade Plug in? I don't understand. Thanks!

My 5 month old kitten keeps nursing on everything. Mainly me. When we found him at the shelter, we would hold him and he would nurse on us. He's done it less often, now that we've had him at home, but he still does it occasionally. This is on top of his normal kitten sprints through the...

I have a 5 month old Maine Coon kitten (I'm pretty sure), and feeding him is a little hard. When we adopted him from the shelter, he was so small and thin, so our number one priority was getting him to a healthy weight. We were feeding him the dry food the shelter gave us (science diet for...

So my boyfriend and I adopted our 5 month old kitten about a month ago, and they identified him as an orange tabby, but he's really big for a 5 month old, and his eyes are not like the normal tabby eyes, he also has fur in between his toes, as well as small ear tufts. I'm pretty sure we have a...
